Profile:

An enigma of an opening batsman, he had periods of success interspersed with those of failure. A successful debut against England at home was followed by a nightmarish tour to England in 1952, which included 4 successive Test ducks. He recovered from this to score runs against the West Indies at home. Soon after acquiring glasses, he partnered Vinoo Mankad in a world-record opening stand of 413, vs New Zealand in 1955-56. Pankajda was a careful player, better known for his solid defense, though he could attack when the mood struck him. He captained India in one Test, in England in 1959. Unfortunately, India lost that Test (and the series, 5-0). His son, Pranab, a chip off the old block, played 2 Tests. (Uday Rajan, 1998)
